At what stage will it sink in? Widens,Salford or Bradford hammerings or will blind optimism rule until we are down by the end of july

Gutters mate, it's bad enough that we may well lose these games but you almost seem to be wishing it so in order to make your point.

the opposite actually. I hope they are sitting on 6 points (12 ahead of Bradford) after 3 games....I just don't have much faith in that being the case.

Gosh you don't remember suggesting we'll get beat comprehensively in the first three games.

No, I clearly remember that. I just don't recall saying there was no point in going to watch it....as I've said, I don't dictate to anyone what they can say or do or where they go, unlike the uber-optimists on here who decry my negative realism and predictions for 2014.
Brian Mac on the BBC site reckons we'll get some wins this year......I suspect that depends on the challenge cup draw.

Oh you do dictate. No one can comment on anything you say without being an apologist to the club or a blind optimist. Any one taking a membership, anyone suggesting anything other than your view. And who are the uber optimists you keep referring to?

Apart from that no problems.

Where is the ignore button? Though that doesn't help the wider world.

I've never dared tell anyone to buy memberships or not....I've never had the nerve to suggest fans stay away either. As for a differing view to mine, it's what makes an Internet forum........if we all thought the same, it truly would be a boring world. This is a thread about the Leeds friendly......this is a game that TR said was key for the team and we got rightly spanked. There is no positives to take from it. Watch the highlights again and tell me that if we defend like that all year we will be anything other than fodder. Hey.....enjoy the games you go to.....there's more to Match day than the result, but don't have a pop at negativity in a thread about a 62-10 thumping

Hide behind the forum and different views position if you want. You use the term final solution but suggest as someone else stated it it's okay just to say again. Previous posts gave suggested people buying memberships gailey without thought. Jolly good you don't actually say don't turn up but suggest anyone turning up is complicit. Continue your negative marketing, you obviously enjoy it. We are fodder most on here have suggested it at some point or if you speak to them tell you that's there position.

I repeated the phrase used by the potential saviour of the club as published by the BBC. Your harking on about it when it is irrelevant to This thread shows that you know you have wrongly accused me, yet rather than admit it, you'll stir up another issue.
Enjoy the games this year.......they may or may not be the last in sl but either way, it'll be an emotional ride

I was at game on Friday, just have a look at the Leeds line up, proper strong squad, they put out, BJB had a field day in 2nd half.

Close 1st half though, fitness was a big factor, no real pre- season and the players are still not used to each other yet, GIVE THEM TIME.

We will struggle, But that's London for you, Get behind them,
